2sin^2(x)+sin(x)+1=0

Solution

2 sin^{2} (x) + sin (x) + 1 = 0

Solution

No Solution for x \in R

Solution steps

2 sin^{2} (x) + sin (x) + 1 = 0

Solve by substitution

2 sin^{2} (x) + sin (x) + 1 = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

2 u^{2} + u + 1 = 0

2 u^{2} + u + 1 = 0 : u = - \frac{1}{4} + i \frac{7}{4}, u = - \frac{1}{4} - i \frac{7}{4}

2 u^{2} + u + 1 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

2 u^{2} + u + 1 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 2, b = 1, c = 1

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- 1 \pm 1 ^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 2}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- 1 \pm 1 ^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 2}

Simplify

1^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 : 7 i

1^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1

Apply rule

1^{a} = 1

1^{2} = 1

= 1 - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 = 8

= 1 - 8

Subtract the numbers:

1 - 8 = - 7

= - 7

Apply radical rule:

- a = - 1 a

- 7 = - 1 7

= - 1 7

Apply imaginary number rule:

- 1 = i

= 7 i

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- 1 \pm 7 i}{2 \cdot 2}

Separate the solutions

u_{1} = \frac{- 1 + 7 i}{2 \cdot 2}, u_{2} = \frac{- 1 - 7 i}{2 \cdot 2}

u = \frac{- 1 + 7 i}{2 \cdot 2} : - \frac{1}{4} + i \frac{7}{4}

\frac{- 1 + 7 i}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{- 1 + 7 i}{4}

Rewrite

\frac{- 1 + 7 i}{4}

in standard complex form:

- \frac{1}{4} + \frac{7}{4} i

\frac{- 1 + 7 i}{4}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a \pm b}{c} = \frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c}

\frac{- 1 + 7 i}{4} = - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{7 i}{4}

= - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{7 i}{4}

= - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{7}{4} i

u = \frac{- 1 - 7 i}{2 \cdot 2} : - \frac{1}{4} - i \frac{7}{4}

\frac{- 1 - 7 i}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{- 1 - 7 i}{4}

Rewrite

\frac{- 1 - 7 i}{4}

in standard complex form:

- \frac{1}{4} - \frac{7}{4} i

\frac{- 1 - 7 i}{4}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a \pm b}{c} = \frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c}

\frac{- 1 - 7 i}{4} = - \frac{1}{4} - \frac{7 i}{4}

= - \frac{1}{4} - \frac{7 i}{4}

= - \frac{1}{4} - \frac{7}{4} i

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = - \frac{1}{4} + i \frac{7}{4}, u = - \frac{1}{4} - i \frac{7}{4}

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = - \frac{1}{4} + i \frac{7}{4}, sin (x) = - \frac{1}{4} - i \frac{7}{4}

sin (x) = - \frac{1}{4} + i \frac{7}{4}, sin (x) = - \frac{1}{4} - i \frac{7}{4}

sin (x) = - \frac{1}{4} + i \frac{7}{4} :

No Solution

sin (x) = - \frac{1}{4} + i \frac{7}{4}

No Solution

sin (x) = - \frac{1}{4} - i \frac{7}{4} :

No Solution

sin (x) = - \frac{1}{4} - i \frac{7}{4}

No Solution
